Microsoft is expanding its Xbox Game Pass offerings with the addition of three new titles, including two games with ties to Poland.
Microsoft confirmed the list of games coming to the service for the remainder of the month on Tuesday, delivering a strong lineup with three new additions available today.
Starting today, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Complete Edition is available on Xbox Game Pass. CD Projekt RED is including not only the base game but also all previously released expansions, offering both new and returning players over 100 hours of gameplay in one of the most acclaimed RPGs of all time. This is a prime opportunity to experience a classic or dive into the world of Geralt for the first time.
Many fans are hoping today’s Game Pass release is a prelude to a larger announcement. Rumors have circulated for months suggesting that The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt could receive a substantial new expansion. While currently unconfirmed, adding the complete edition to the subscription service has fueled speculation.
The second new addition is Death Howl. The title initially launched on PC but is now available on consoles, marking another premiere within Microsoft’s subscription service. The Outer Zone is responsible for the development, with 11 bit studios serving as publisher and providing support – a further example of collaboration between a Polish firm and an interesting project.
Death Howl transports players to a dark, open world of spirits where every step could be your last. Players capture on the role of Ro, a hunter desperately trying to bring her son back from the afterlife. Success hinges on building deadly decks with over 160 cards, skillfully utilizing Totem powers, and employing tactical thinking in turn-based combat. On the battlefield, players must simultaneously control the situation, manage risk, and literally “cheat death” to survive further encounters.
Finally, Microsoft is adding EA Sports College Football 26 to the lineup. The sports title from EA debuted in July of last year and is now available to Xbox Game Pass subscribers, allowing them to experience the atmosphere of college football at no additional cost.
